Historical facts of the dangers of guns versus doctors in the United States
Something to think about...
Number of gun owners in the U.S.: 80,000,000
Number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups): 1,500
Accidental deaths per gun owner: 0.0000188
Number of physicians in the U.S.: 700,000
Number of accidental deaths caused by physicians per year (all age
groups): 120,000
Accidental deaths per physician: 0.171 (U.S. Dept. of Health & Human
Services)
Statistically, Doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than
gun owners.
FACT: Not everyone has a gun, but everyone has at least one doctor.
Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors
before this gets out of hand. (As a public health measure, statistics on
lawyers were withheld for fear that the shock could cause people to seek
medical aid.)
